You think that's bad... hit up a bar on the Vegas strip. Double-digit prices for drinks that would go for three bucks in Iowa.

But beyond that, Vegas is a drinker's paradise. Many bars on and off the Strip are open 24/7 and they never stop serving booze. You read that right!!! You can literally go in at six in the morning - when 80% of the night crowd has left - and get tanked up before heading into your day job. And you can drink on the streets... the tourists and the homeless folks just adore that fact. Coming from L.A. where the entire town is dead by 11 a.m. and the bars close around midnight... it's just unreal.

There's this place on Maryland Parkway called Moose's... on Tuesday nights for ten bucks you can get all you can drink beer. Your eyes deceive ye not!!!

Edited to add: In Las Vegas you can smoke in grocery stores! Well, as long as you keep it over by the slot machines. Yes, they have slot machines in grocery stores, in liquor stores, at 7-11s, at Rite-Aid, you name it. They'll get a little mad if you smoke in the aisles. Coming from L.A. it was a major shock. I swear that 50% of the smog here is from cigarette smoke.
